The rise and re-emergence of infectious diseases in recent decades have led experts to predict that Disease X is likely to be a zoonotic disease. Zoonotic diseases are those transmitted from animals to humans and constitute a considerable threat to our well-being. About 3 out of every 4 new or emerging infectious diseases originate from animals.
The concept of One Health, which recognises the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health, emerged in the early 2000s in response to the emergence of new zoonotic diseases and the growing awareness of the role of environmental factors in the spread of disease. The One Health approach brings together experts from diverse fields, including human health, veterinary medicine, virology, and environmental science. Experts from various fields should collaborate to monitor disease threats, detect outbreaks at an early stage, and implement measures to prevent disease transmission. Early detection of pathogens in animals, especially in wildlife, provides an opportunity to intervene before the disease spreads to humans.
Lastly, communities can make significant contributions to disease prevention through awareness campaigns and responsible practices.
